Chapter 101 New 'Members” Of The Elite Class (Part 2)

Now that the atmosphere was more friendly, Yvonne, Liliana and even Michael greeted Liz, Yvonne was especially happy to meet her in person.

"Thanks for teaching those old bastards a lesson… Liz, to think you will be able to suppress another peak Archmage so easily, I guess no one related to Daimon can be normal".

Liz laughed, she looked from the corner of her eyes at Daimon and smirked.

"Yeah, that's a thing in common "we" all share", she said in a suggesting voice.

Yvonne had a weird smiling expression, her words made her remember Daimon was engaged not only to Liz but the current clan head of the Revy family which was her sister too.

Daimon feigned ignorance and he instead changed the subject to prevent Liz messing with him.

"Ahem, leaving that aside where the hell is Calvin?".

Michael sighed, "That idiot went to pick up the girl from the library… he told me everything was settled and that she will join us today?".

Aliya frowned her brows.

"Who will be joining us, tutor Ogien hasn't told me anything about it?".

As if he was waiting for other to speak about him, the door of the classroom opened and Calvin entered followed by a girl.

"Good morning!!!", said Calvin with a strangely enthusiastic voice which vanished as soon as he saw Daimon sitting with a new "student", Liz was sitting backwards to the door so he could only see her back appearance.

"Come on class rep, can't you leave the stage light for me once?", he said in an aggrieved tone.

Michael shook his head.

"Calvin unless you want to die just sit down and shut up".

"Mm?", Calvin noticed not only Michael but all the others including Aliya were looking at him with pity filled gazes.

It was then he noticed the foxlike ears and tails on the girl that was sitting next to Daimon, and the memory of the scary woman that kicked Yvonne's dad ass yesterday appeared on his mind.

Calvin cleared his throat; he approached Liz and slightly bowed his head.

"The young master of the Ghrish family greets the respectable champion of the Revy family".

Daimon laughed, "Since when you became so proper?".

"He is just bluffing because of that girl from the A class", said Michael with a ridiculing voice.

Aliya took out her sigil lector, she sent a message and got an answer almost immediately, the girl that Calvin brought to the class got a "re-evaluation" of her results from the admission tests, and with the approval of one of the two vice principals of the third test she was promoted to the elite class.

Aura didn't interfere when Alexander got his own "elite class" so the Jolbaris couldn't complain.

Calvin sat down next to Michael and the girl went to the front of the classroom to present herself.

"My name is Loren Lefay, I'm 18 years old and my affinity is light… it's a pleasure to meet you".

Loren was a tall girl with brown hair and blue eyes, she was wearing a light green and white dress which gave her a certain calm and gentle appearance.

Listening to her surname Aliya understood why the principal pulled some strings to transfer this girl with them, the Lefay family was a low range noble family as they have few Archmages, but they are recognized because they have one of the rarest affinities in the beast faction which is light.

Unlike the corrosive light developed by the human "light faction", the light element of the Lefay family isn't used for offensive but for support, which on lower realms isn't too appreciated but for the army and those who are in high realms they are treated like treasures… because the best healing spells belong to the light element.

Of course, the girls didn't miss the chance to greet their new classmate, including Aisha, which took Loren by surprise, although Calvin assured her that his class was different than others, she thought he was just being positive.

The one "ruling" this class was someone from the Revy family with a not so good reputation, she already had the displeasure of meeting someone form the Jolbaris so she thought it would more or less the same at the end of the day.

But things weren't like that at all, no one looked at her with disdain for her "useless" affinity, or the current situation of her family which was struggling to keep its noble status, even the rumored demon from the elite class was joking with Calvin like any other friend would do.

Originally Loren was going to sit with Calvin and Michael, but Leslie dragged her with them.

"Come with us Ren, staying too close to Calvin is not good for your health", she said as she chuckled.

While Michael nodding totally agreeing with Leslie's opinion, Calvin sighed.

"What am I some kind of pest for you?".

"Yes… you are an enemy of women", said Yvonne with a grin.

Calvin turned to see Daimon with a pleading expression.

"Daimon, give this "brother in weapons" a little help here".

Unfortunately for him, Daimon ignored him, while on the surface he didn't look nor act like a skirt chaser… he had six girls on his life already, one of them being is own mother, and he didn't want to be publicly known as a womanizer at least not for the time being.

Seeing that the only one that could lend him a hand was ignoring him, Calvin sighed and sat down feeling depressed.

"I just wanted to experience the joy of Loren leaning her head against my shoulder as we studied, or maybe helping her understanding some difficult matters about magic… sigh I'm wasting my school years", he mumbled.

Michael shook his head, "An idiot like you explaining magic to others, that is something I will pay to see".

Now that everyone was occupying their seats, Aliya started with the class.

"Loren you are new, so first tell us what have you seen in your previous class".

Loren nodded, "We started learning theory to augment our reserves of mana, that's the only thing we have learned so far".

Aliya shook her head, "That's such an amateur mistake… whatever forget about that, for the next months and until the two classes fight with each other, we will focus on spell casting, potion brewing and magic comprehension".

"Speaking of that, did you already started reading books about your respective elements?".

Everyone but Loren nodded, Daimon and Aisha took the books home, Calvin and Michael read at the library, while Liliana, Yvonne and Leslie were gifted some books by Richard and Irina so they could study in their rooms.

Aliya nodded in recognition, her students might be problematic but at least they did put effort into their lessons, even Calvin started taking things seriously, especially after Richard told him.

"I have a good training regimen for rebellious silk pants… perhaps that old man will be grateful or me if I help his grandson correct his ways".

Aliya suddenly seemed to remember something, she looked in her storage ring and then took out a series of similar looking scrolls and a crystal ball.

"Although I did say we will focus in more practical lessons, there is one thing we need to see as it refers to why the academy was created".

"These are copies of a contract every student has to sign and the crystal ball, is a magic device called orb of loyalty… some of you might have heard rumors about some secrets kept by the academy, everything will be cleared after you sign".

She handed a scroll to each of them and then explained the process.

"First read the terms of the contract and once you are ready you must place on of your hands on the orb to sign, I can't tell you about what the secret is, but I assure you the contract is just for the security of everyone and there are no side effects… in fact once you become Archmages it will be meaningless".

Daimon opened the scroll and carefully read the clauses of the contract; it wasn't too elaborated as it just stated that the students were prohibited to speak about the knowledge, they will be granted in the next two hours with anyone that isn't an Archmage".

"Evangeline this thing won't affect me, right?", he mentally asked.

"Of course not, your soul and the ones of the soulmates are protected by the system, so this crappy contract won't be able to mark you… I will take care of tricking it into believing it did work though".

Daimon nodded, when the girls became his soulmates, they were freed from any illness, bound or negative effect that were ailing them, that's why he already knew they will be told about the past history of the Wonder Myriad stellar chart and the invaders that came from outside the stellar chart.

"I guess I will go first since I'm the representative", he thought before standing up and approaching Aliya.

He made a slight cut on his left index finger and then placed his hand on the orb of loyalty as he pressed his bleeding fingertip on the scroll to sign the contract.

The orb illuminated in yellow light and he felt a slight uncomfortable feeling which was immediately erased by the protection of the system, the orb changed its color to green and then Aliya nodded.

"That's all I will keep the scroll as proof that you accepted the collective contract… who wants to go next?".
